[GRASS-user] How to import KML polygons in GRASS?

[John C. Tull]

You can try what I do, which is to convert the kml to a shapefile with  
whatever transformation one wants. Then import the shapefile with  
v.in.ogr.

The ogr2ogr command can look something like this:

ogr2ogr -s_srs EPSG:4326 -t_srs EPSG:26911 my_outfile.shp my_infile.kml

Best,
John
